    Many speed limits are arbitrary and useless.

    A good example is one where I live where they changed a 50km/h to 30km/h. There have never been any accidents or complaints by people that live here. The real reason? So people would be inclined to stop at one of the bistros.

    I don’t know how many times I’ve been wanting to paint that 3 into 8.

    Interesting that the drivers didn’t notice the “increased” speed limit. Either it wasn’t convincing or people don’t pay enough attention to speed limit signs. Probably the latter.
